Lyrics

Verse

Return, O God of Love,

Return to claim your own.

Bring us, O Christ, to Heav’n above

To worship at your throne.

Chorus

We want no king but you.

No wealth on earth will do.

O fill our hearts with joyous praise;

Your glory satisfies.

Verse

You’ve kept us for your fame

To make your power known,

To bring great glory to your name:

Lord Jesus, bring us home.

Chorus

We want no king but you.

No wealth on earth will do.

O fill our hearts with joyous praise;

Your glory satisfies.

Verse

We’ll be like you at last,

Unfettered by our sin.

To praise God’s glory rich and vast,

O Savior, call us in.

Chorus

We want no king but you.

No wealth on earth will do.

O fill our hearts with joyous praise;

Your glory satisfies.

Verse

What joy will then be ours

For all eternity,

To satisfy the countless hours

With praise both glad and free.

Chorus

We want no king but you.

No wealth on earth will do.

O fill our hearts with joyous praise;

Your glory satisfies.

Chorus

We want no king but you.

No wealth on earth will do.

O fill our hearts with joyous praise;

Your glory satisfies.
